A few words about gardening in 5 gallon plastic buckets: Good Luck With That...
I've grown a few little things like herbs and strawberry plants in 5 gallon plastic buckets over the years. The bigger plants like potatoes and tomatoes didn't thrive at all in the buckets for me and they required frequent watering to keep the plants alive. The potatoes that managed to survive were tiny like peanuts; just sayin'. I've repurposed my ruined buckets for composting coffee grounds and potato peelings; they work great for that!

Planting Seed Potatoes in 25 Gallon Plastic Tubs
#CONTAINER GARDENING #RED PONTIAC POTATOES #COOL SEASON GARDENING #BENNYB1966
02/15/2024
Drill drainage holes in bottom of 25 gallon plastic tubs. Fill tubs 1/2 full with dirt. Plant 5 sulfur-dusted seed-potatoes per container and barely cover them with dirt. Water them in. Gradually add more dirt to "hill them" up as they grow. If frost threatens, cover them with clear plastic or more dirt to protect from freezing. Keep them slightly moist, but be careful not to overwater. Too much water will encourage fungal diseases and cause them to rot. Depending on the weather and how big you like your potatoes, they'll be ready to start digging up to harvest in 3 to 6 months. Once the tops die back, the potatoes will stop growing and can be dug as needed well into late Fall.

Dusting & Drying Seed Potatoes Before Planting in the Cold Wet Dirt
Dusting "seed potatoes" with Horticultural Sulfur and allowing them to dry out a bit before planting helps prevent them from rotting in the cold wet dirt.

Easy Air Fryer Canned Crescent Dough Mardi Gras King Cake
#EASY MARDI GRAS KING CAKE #CANNED CRESCENT ROLL DOUGH #CREAM CHEESE CINNAMON PECAN FILLING #AIR FRYER PIZZA PAN BennyB1966
My first ever homemade Mardi Gras Crescent Roll King Cake tasted great,but I destroyed it trying to get it out of the air fryer basket without burning myself. Getting ready to try and make a prettier one with the remaining ingredients. Otherwise, very happy with how it turned out and will definitely plan to make this again next year!

This one had a very rough time coming out of the air fryer, but we ate it anyway & it was good!
Will need to bake it longer and be more careful talking it out of the air fryer next time. There was more than enough ingredients left to give it another try later. I had a hard time removing it from the air fryer without destroying it.

The sausage patties turned out good. Will try making links with the hog casings and stuffer attachment at a later date. The raw mix is going back to the freezer for now.
